981: Chapter 982: Wu Xiaoya Seeks Help

The Su Family’s landline phone rang.

Nowadays, most families don’t have landline phones anymore.

With the prevalence of mobile phones, landlines have beco increasingly obsolete, retained only by places like companies or large families like this one.

The caller was Wu Xiaoya.

These days, she was really in agony, not just because of the harrowing mories of the plane crash, but mainly due to the pressure she was under now.

At the ti, she detailed the incident to the airline, specifically exposing the cris of people like Li Fangding.

However, after the airline obtained her testimony, they did not disclose it, and her movents were strictly monitored.

Even her phone was bugged.

Then, the sa won who faced hardship ca to her, urging her to give testimony favorable to Li Fangding.

Wu Xiaoya was baffled.

Those won were clearly abused by Li Fangding and his kind on the island, so why, upon returning, did they not only refuse to resist but even lacked the will to tell the truth and wanted to help Li Fangding cover it up?

Wu Xiaoya was determined not to join in with Li Fangding’s collusion, firmly rejecting these people.

But next, she encountered even more terrifying things—threatening calls that would ring from ti to ti.

Her personal safety was severely threatened.

Now, she was very worried that if she went out, she might suddenly et with an accident, like being run over by a car.

No one could help her now; she was isolated and helpless.

So, she thought of Song Xiaodong, recalling what he had told her before they parted ways.

This prompted her to secretly borrow a phone to call the number she had morized.

“Hello!

Su Family Mansion, who may I ask is calling?” answered the Su family’s servant.

Wu Xiaoya, hearing it was the Su Family Mansion, suspected she had dialed the wrong number.

After all, neither Song Xiaodong nor Miao Qingqing nor Miao Xuanxuan had the surna Su.

“I…

I’d like to speak with Mr.

Song Xiaodong.” Wu Xiaoya said carefully.

The servant replied, “Then please leave your na, so I can inform the family head about whether to take your call.”

“My na is Wu Xiaoya.” Wu Xiaoya gave her na.

“Please hold on.”

Wu Xiaoya was a bit puzzled about the ‘family head,’ which sounded quite formidable.

Who exactly was Song Xiaodong?

After waiting for half a minute, static ca over the phone, indicating it had been picked up again, causing her heart to tighten with tension.

“Xiaoya, it’s Song Xiaodong.” Song Xiaodong’s voice ca through.

“Ah, is it really you?” Wu Xiaoya instinctively asked.

“It’s .

Are you in so trouble over there?” Song Xiaodong asked directly.

“Yes!” Wu Xiaoya felt a surge of grievance, her nose turning sour as she choked up, “They’re targeting

everywhere now.

I’ve been deprived of my personal freedom, and I’m scared they might kill

any mont now.”

Song Xiaodong snorted, “What audacity!

From now on, don’t go anywhere.

I’ll co by tomorrow to handle this matter.”

“Ah…

But Li Fangding is back in Jinhua, completely in control there.

Everyone with him is like an accomplice, and no one dares to speak the truth.”

“I know.

Don’t worry.

I will ensure the deceased get justice.

For now, just make sure you protect yourself.”

“Okay!” Wu Xiaoya agreed, then softly said, “Thank you, Big Brother Song.”

Song Xiaodong said, “This isn’t just your issue; it’s mine too.

I must seek justice for the deceased.

I can’t let those people die in vain.

It’s what I have to do.”

After hanging up the phone, Wu Xiaoya felt a stir in her heart.

She finally found so comfort with Song Xiaodong, finally having soone on her side.

From now on, she wouldn’t be fighting alone anymore, nor would she be outpowered and isolated.

However, Wu Xiaoya was still sowhat worried.

Even though Song Xiaodong had so influence, could he really contend with soone like Li Fangding, who was the deputy mayor?

While she was worrying, there was a knock on the door.

Wu Xiaoya imdiately felt a little panic-stricken.

She cautiously approached the door and looked outside through the peephole.

It was a young man in his twenties wearing a delivery company’s uniform.

“Who are you looking for?”

“Hello, I’m with Pingda Express.

I have a package for Ms.

Wu Xiaoya,” said the delivery guy outside.

Wu Xiaoya carefully looked through the peephole again and, confirming it was just the delivery guy, opened the door.

But as soon as the door opened, the delivery guy suddenly squeezed to the door, and before Wu Xiaoya could react, three more n rushed in.

“What are you doing?” Wu Xiaoya scread in terror.

“We’re from the City Public Security Bureau.

There’s a case, and we need you to co with us to assist in the investigation,” one of the n said, waving a docunt in his hand.

“I haven’t broken any laws, so why should I go with you?” Wu Xiaoya backed away.

Two of the n imdiately ca up and roughly grabbed Wu Xiaoya’s arms.

The first man barked, “Whether or not you’ve committed a cri is not for you to decide.

Cooperate with our investigation, or don’t bla us for getting rough.”

Wu Xiaoya gritted her teeth and said, “Can I make a call first?”

“No!

So much nonsense.” The two n holding her arms shoved Wu Xiaoya out.

As a weak woman, Wu Xiaoya was no match for four n as fierce as wolves.

In no ti, they dragged her into the elevator.

The elevator descended several floors, then stopped.

A man and a woman were about to enter the elevator when Wu Xiaoya cried out, “Help!

Help!”

The man and woman froze, looking in confusion at the people inside.

“We’re the police, handling a case,” said the man, showing a credential.

“They’re not police; they’re bad people,” Wu Xiaoya shouted urgently.

“Shut up!

You slut still causing trouble?” the guy turned and glared at Wu Xiaoya.

“I’m not a slut!” Wu Xiaoya shouted angrily.

The guy said harshly, “We’ve been watching your gang for days, still denying it.”

The man and woman at the elevator door were bewildered, watching as the doors closed.

Wu Xiaoya’s heart was now filled with terror.

The slander against her was clearly malicious, and she understood that this was definitely Li Fangding making his move against her.

These people might even be real police officers, which ant she’d have a hard ti speaking out.
